Comedian London Hughes has claimed Gemma Collins' foul-mouthed rant from her time on Celebs Go Dating was about her.

The TV presenter, 29, said she was 'triggered' by the voice recording which emerged this week of the TOWIE star, 38, where she refers to herself as a 'f*****g star' and says the other Celebs Go Dating contestants are not on her 'TV level'.

London took part in the fourth series of the dating show along with Gemma.

London has previously penned scripts for the BBC and currently lives in Los Angeles.

In the unearthed recording, Gemma refused to go and film in Wales with three unnamed girls and that show bosses can have her £60,000 fee back.

The reality star, who has made headlines recently for her apparent diva behaviour behind-the-scenes at Dancing On Ice, seemed to be saying she makes her co-stars 'look good on camera'.

'Diva': Gemma reportedly launched into an explosive rant where she claimed she was a 'f**king star' compared to her co-stars who are 'not up to her TV level' (pictured in January 2019)

She said during the alleged recording obtained by the Sun: 'Have me hanging around to film with three girls that are clearly not up to my TV level, don't put me in scenes with them girls.'

Gemma added that the show was about her attempts at finding love and she didn't want to have to listen to the other celebrities' experiences.

She continued by telling whoever she was having the row with: 'I'm a f**king star you can't have me hanging around all day.'

Growing tearful, Gemma then appeared to demand to know what she is hanging around for again, before admitting that the dating show is not right for her.

She became exasperated and told the person she was arguing with that they don't film the show the way she is used to, and after filming TOWIE all year, she refuses to hang around for anyone.

Attempting to leave, Gemma added that she isn't sticking around and if they want to film her then they can come to her native Essex, rather than Wales.

Before finally appearing to leave the confrontation Gemma said: 'How can I not be on screen I'm the best one on the show? Take your 60 grand back, I'm out of here, bye.'

On her way out of the situation Gemma added that if they were planning on using the footage from the argument then she would break the mic they had been using.

MailOnline have contacted Gemma's representatives for comment.

The publication claimed that in the E4 show which aired in 2018, Gemma is set up with a man named Terry Sanders, but kicked off after she refused to return to their date after leaving four minutes into it.

In recent weeks Gemma was accused of being a diva for leaving the Dancing On Ice live show early, and has been met with criticism about it from the likes of judge Jason Gardiner and presenter Holly Willoughby.

Christopher Dean has also since had his say on Gemma, adding: 'Some of them have a background of discipline because they’ve been in a band or been an athlete. That’s something Gemma hasn’t done before.

'I hope she will stay for the whole show this week,' he remarked to the Daily Star, in what appeared to be a thinly-veiled dig at Gemma's reality TV background and her timekeeping.

'I wasn’t aware that Gemma had left early until a while afterwards when people were talking about it,' he added. 'What Gemma needs to learn is it’s all about being part of a team. So I’d like her to be part of a team.'

Gemma has asked for a public apology from Holly and her co-host Phillip Schofield for branding her 'unprofessional'.

The This Morning presenters took the TOWIE star to task for departing the show fifteen minutes early and also delaying rehearsals by taking a nap.

Speaking to the Daily Mirror, Gemma said: 'I’ve been told on the rumour mill that Phil and Holly have been told off, but a public apology would go a long way.

'I haven’t seen them yet – obviously I’ll see them at the studio, but I’d like an intervention before the show starts.

'We need to find the culprit responsible for giving them this false information.'

Gemma was said to be very upset by Holly and Phil's comments on the ITV chat show.

They were speaking with Love Island's Kem Cetinay, 22, who told how she had left one of the Sunday shows early due to being 'bored'.

Kem said: 'Well I didn't know she went until after but then we saw this video and I was thinking, "I don't know where Gemma is," and I went to her dressing room and she wasn't there.

'So I did speak to her after and she said she was a bit bored, but she does love skating.'

Holly then gave her opinion on The GC's no-show, saying: 'The thing is I really love Gemma, you know I'm a big fan of Gemma's and I think she's great on the show I do, but I think there has to be a bit of professionalism that comes into any work you do, just a bit of pride in your work.'

Phil then added: 'In all the years I've been in television, I have never kept a studio waiting.'

The presenter said: 'But then that's absolute rubbish, that's just a really good excuse to get away with stuff you don't want to do. I love that side of her, I do love it, but I do think professionalism will always outweigh that diva behaviour.'
